Aizawa made his way to the 1-A classroom, already hearing the ruckus from down the hall. He sighed as he mentally prepared himself before he entered the room. Once he opened the room, he saw Katsuki's intense stare from the opposite side of the room. He raised an eyebrow at the blonde who squinted his eyes. "I need to talk to you." he mouthed as the class became quieter. Aizawa gave him a suspicious look before nodding.

Once Aizawa's class finished, Katsuki angrily walked over to Aizawa'a desk at sighed, "Yes, Bakugo?"

"I kinda need your help with something... It's not related to school."

"Depends on what you want me to do?" He said in an overly sarcastic tone. Katsuki resisted the urge to scoff and roll his eyes.

"Alright, so my best friend from middle school just came home from seeing family on the other side of the country after four years." he lied.

That's not his business to share.

"I reunited with him yesterday, and he doesn't think he can control his quirk. Like he always whispers or mumbles, it's annoying. Before the inc- before he left, we all thought he was quirkless—Basically, what I'm asking is that it would be amazing if you could help him out." Katsuki crossed his arms.

Aizawa assessed the boy standing in front of him for a moment. "What's his quirk?"

"Uh, it has something to do with his voice. I thought I overheard his mum telling my mum that Deku is a banshee. But I thought there couldn't be any male banshee's." Aizawa hummed in acknowledgement.

"Deku?" "Oh, that's uh—just a nickname. His name is Izuku." Aizawa glared at Katsuki.

"In some rare cases, there can be male banshee's. But we can discuss that later. Why don't you bring Izuku here so I can meet him." Katsuki grimaced. Deku wouldn't like that at all.

"He's not very good with crowds, sir." the blonde said carefully. Aizawa sighed and rubbed the bridge of his nose.

"How about tomorrow then. You can tell Izuku that I'll come to meet him." Katsuki nodded and walked out of the classroom, leaving Aizawa in his thoughts. He didn't miss how his student nearly slipped up. Aizawa yawned and slipped into his sleeping bag, and decided to leave the thinking later.

Back with Izuku and Masaru.

The older man had convinced Izuku to leave the house and go shopping for clothes with him. Once they left the car, Izuku immediately grabbed Masaru's hand and clenched his rabbit in the other.

"Take deep breathes, Izuku. I'm right here. If anything gets too much, tell me, ok?" Izuku nodded and leaned into Mararu's side as they walked through multiple shops.

Sometimes Izuku would pick clothes, but mainly let the older man chose for him because Izuku wasn't used to having people buy him anything in years.

"Are you hungry, Izuku?" the more petite boy slowly nodded as they made their way to the food court. He looked around at all the people.

'Too many people...'

Izuku squeezed his rabbit tighter and tugged on the man's hand, catching his attention. "Are you ok? Is there too many people?" Izuku nodded quickly as his breathing quickened.

Masaru quickly kneeled in front of Izuku so that he would only focus on him.

"Hey, it's alright. I'm here with you. No one will hurt you. You've got this Izuku." he encouraged, but Izuku shook his head. Masaru pulled out a pair of earbuds from his back pocket.

"How about you listen to music while we get food?" Izuku sniffled and nodded his head and took the earbuds from Masaru, who had already begun playing calming music for the boy.
